Coffee cup sleeve

I saw this very cute gift idea just weeks before Christmas on Amys Notebook and with lots of gal friends being the coffee lovers they are I thought what a great little gift for them.

The pattern is from Canadian Living and was very easy to do. It took me about 3 sleeves before I could make them look really nice in about 1 hour. I think that one of the learning curves was purling since I have only ever straight knit before (please remember readers I only started knitting early this fall).

I can't wait to see the gals using their cute little sleeves to keep their second cup java's warm!!

Those turned out soooo cute! I was planning to make one to match a cowl I made for my mother-in-law (I will post the pattern next week), but her cowl took the whole skein of yarn :( I just love your color choices!! So cute!
